Default Got forged today!
Just ordered a motor from brenspeed today! It should be here in two to three weeks, I can't wait for it to get here. Hope my motor doesn't blow before then!

which engine did you buy? shortblock? I am assuming you are going to turn up the boost? Have any hp goals?

I ordered the saleen longblock, I really don't care about power numbers maybe shoot for 700rwhp with a different blower! I really just want to run mid 10's at our elevation.

So you going to sell that Saleen TS to Mishri? If he doesn't want it I get 2nd grabs on it.

Yep, maybe sooner than I think! Brenspeed is working on a YSI blower setup for me. Or we were talking about the Techco!

What kind of power does that engine produce n/a?

It's made for a blower, so probably the same as stock or even less! Not sure though.

Are you going to sell your stock engine back to brenspeed? I noticed that it looks like they might give you $2000-2500 for it.

I'll be curious to see what you decide to do with that supershaker.

why not turbo? I'd think that would give a little more potential with the elevation you are at.

Americanspeed, I totaly have been thinking about a turbo! I don't know that much about them, but I would totaly do one if I could find a good kit that will run the numbers I want.
